When we introduced the PASSPORT 8500 X50 radar detector, it was instantly
acclaimed "The World's Best."
In more than one dozen independent tests, review
after review, year after year, PASSPORT comes out on top.

Now we've made it even better. The new PASSPORT 8500 X50, or as we like to
call it the "X50 Black", delivers a
vicious 40% performance improvement. It has
a sophisticated new look and includes a fitted travel case and
convenient
SmartCord®.

Hailed as the most revolutionary radar/laser detector ever.
The Passport 8500 X50's new "V-Tuned" radar
receiver provides extreme detection
range on all police radar; conventional and "instant-on" radar, including
the
new POP mode radar threat, X-Band, and up to 50% more range than the original
Passport 8500 on the
all-important K and Ka bands. Digital signal processing
(DSP) provides maximum range, with minimum false alarms.

Mute and AutoMute
Patented Mute and AutoMute feature
automatically reduces the volume level during an alert to eliminate
annoyance
from long radar encounters.
